C
Mr
mayor
members
of
council,
madam
clerk,
I'm
going
to
ask
to
do
a
little
different
tonight
in
our
invocation.
I've
asked
councilmember
appel
to
join
me.
I
have
prepared
a
prayer
for
the
night,
which
is
a
hybrid
of
two
prayers
that
I
found
on
dealing
with
the
holocaust
memorial
week,
since
our
first
order
of
business
is
going
to
be
the
holocaust
remembrance
proclamation.
C

C
A
Thank
you,
please
be
seated
and
thank
you
for
your
patience
as
we
got
a
little
late
start
today.
This
is
just
one
of
those
announcements
that
we
should
never
have
to
use,
but
just
in
the
outside
event
that
we
would
have
to
evacuate
the
building.
The
way
out
is
these
two
doors
here
and
there's
one
door
out
from
the
room
to
my
right.
A
In
that
case,
don't
use
the
elevator,
but
go
down
the
two
steps
and
then
out
the
steps
to
the
front.
That's
how
we
get
out
just
in
case
we
needed
to
leave
the
building
okay.
So
first
up
I'd
like
to
just
share
with
with
council
the
sadness
of
the
loss
of
one
of
our
citizens
of
the
area.
At
least
he
was
a
citizen
of
andal.
That's
a
former
mayor,
william
alston.
He
was
also
the
long-standing
pastor
of
macedonia.
Ame
church
used
to
be
over
on
alexander
street
they've,
now
moved
west
ashley.
A
I
knew
mayor
alston
back
in
my
days
when
I
worked
in
the
city
in
the
90s
and
various
efforts,
he
was
a
fine
fine
gentleman.
We
offer.
I
offered
a
resolution
to
the
family
and
council's
behalf
just
to
let
you
know
at
the
funeral
this
past
weekend,
but
next
up
is
our
holocaust
remembrance
proclamation.
A
E
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
mayor
council
members
for
this
proclamation
and
for
showing
holocaust
from
remembrance
the
importance
that
it
deserves.
I'd
like
to
very
briefly
mention
our
gratitude
to
the
mayor
for
agreeing
to
attend
what
a
holocaust
remembrance
ceremony
on
sunday
at
our
synagogue
as
part
of
the
holocaust
cattle
car.
Together
with
senator
scott
and
other
dignitaries,
all
council
members
are
invited,
along
with
the
public
now
for
the
prayer,
I'll
say
it
first
in
hebrew
and
then
in
english.
E
God
full
of
mercy
who
dwells
in
the
house,
shelter
them
beneath
the
wings
of
your
presence,
high
among
the
holy
and
the
pure,
who
shine
like
the
brilliant
heavens
shelter.
The
souls
of
the
innocent
six
million
men,
women
and
children.
Holy
communities
who
were
slaughtered
in
the
holocaust
strangled
suffocated
and
burned
to
ash,
amongst
them,
young
children
who
never
tasted
sin
in
their
life
and
their
death
were
never
separated.
E
Their
holy
souls
passed
into
your
care.
Let
the
garden
of
eden,
be
their
resting,
place
master
of
mercy,
drape
them
and
keep
them
forever
in
your
protecting
presence
and
bind
their
souls
to
the
living
and
to
the
life.
God.
You
are
their
inheritance
and
where
they
rest
ease
them
with
peace,
and,
let
us
say,
amen.
A
Thank
you
rabbi
and
members
of
the
jewish
federation,
who
are
here
with
us
this
evening,
and
here
is
our
proclamation
regarding
the
holocaust
remembrance.
Whereas
the
holocaust
was
the
state
sponsored
systematic
persecution
and
annihilation
of
european
jewry
by
nazi
germany
and
its
collaborators
between
1933
and
1945.
A
And
whereas
we
remember
with
sadness
the
11
million,
including
6
million
jews,
who
were
victims
of
hitler's
quote
final
solution
along
with
those
who
were
persecuted
for
their
religious
and
political
beliefs,
sexual
orientation
and
physical
disabilities.
And
whereas
we
remember
with
admiration,
the
resistors
and
rescuers
known
and
unknown,
who
risked
and
lost
their
lives
to
save
others.
And
whereas
we
remember
with
respect
the
survivors
who
escaped
two
of
which
are
proudly
with
us
tonight,
were
sheltered
or
who
were
freed
and
who
lived
to
contribute
so
much
to
our
community
and
to
our
world.
A
And
whereas
the
history
of
the
holocaust
offers
an
opportunity
to
reflect
on
the
moral
responsibilities
of
individual
societies
and
governments,
whereas
we
have
an
obligation
to
ensure
that
the
memory
and
legacy
of
lives
lost
or
forever
changed
in
this
horrific
horrific
event
are
never
forgotten,
and
we
remember
and
honor
the
liberators
of
the
world
war
ii
concentration
camp
77
years
ago,
whereas
I
encourage
all
citizens
to
remember
the
victims
of
the
holocaust
and
to
firmly
commit
themselves
to
promote
human
dignity
by
confronting
intolerance
and
hate.
Whenever
and
wherever
it
occurs.
A
I
invite
all
citizens
of
our
community
to
join
in
the
yom
hashoah
holocaust
remembrance
program,
which
will
be
held
at
the
holocaust
memorial
in
marion
square
on
sunday
may
1st.
Now,
therefore,
I'm
john
jay
tucker
mayor
of
the
city
of
charleston,
on
behalf
of
this
city
council,
do
hereby
proclaim
the
week
april,
4th
to
april
11th,
to
be
week
of
remembrance
and
memory
of
the
victims,
survivors,
rescuers
and
liberators
of
the
holocaust,
and
with
that
rabbi
or
if
anyone
from
the
jewish
federation
would
like
to
make
brief
remarks.
F
F
F
A
F
F
F
D
F
F
These
folks
are
not
going
to
be
here
much
longer
and
just
to
hear
their
stories
and
hear
the
things
that
our
committee
puts
together
so
that
we
can
educate
and
and
continue
this
play,
that's
not
over
and
it's
it's
it's
it's
just
starting.
We
need
to
all
learn
and
love
each
other
and,
like
my
mom
always
taught
me
so
thank
you.
J
A
little
bit
of
good
news,
the
other
day
I
was
having
a
late
breakfast
early
lunch
at
the
variety
store
and
behind
me
there
was
a
huge
commotion
as
if
a
rock
star
had
walked
in
the
door.
Well,
it
happens
that
a
rock
star
did.
It
was
mr
engel
he
came
wandering
in
so
the
good
news
is
for
everybody.
We
just
extended
the
lease
on
the
variety
store
for
another
25
years,
so
you
got
a
good
place
to
go
to
breakfast
after
you
come
visit
with
us.
So.
A
At
the
end
of
the
war,
there
were
less
than
a
hundred
thousand
left.
They
had
been
annihilated
literally,
the
entire
jewish
population
of
of
ukraine
had
been
murdered,
and
it's
so
poignant,
as
noted
with,
what's
going
on
today,
that
vladimir
putin
has
unleashed
on
that
country
and
the
world.
It's
it's
genocide.
It's
murder,
he
is
a
war
criminal
and
I
just
applaud
again
and
again
all
of
our
citizens
who
are
coming
together
to
assist
the
citizens
of
ukraine
in
every
way.
A
Council
member
appel
attended
just
a
gathering
in
avondale,
west
ashley
last
friday
and
and
citizens
are
getting
medical
supplies.
The
joint
air
base,
charleston,
I
believe,
is
going
to
help
us
fly
some
over
there,
but
private
citizens
have
been
chartering
planes.
I
talked
to
citizens
who
are
booking
flights
on
commercial
airlines
just
to
take
as
big
of
bags
as
they
can
with
supplies
to
get
to
ukraine
and
then
come
right
back.
It's
just
amazing.
The
outreach
is
occurring
all
over
the
world,
but
right
here
in
charleston
as
well,
so
we
won't
forget.
A
We
can't
forget-
and
it's
sinful
and
shameful
that
yet
another
evil
event
is
happening
as
as
we
speak
and
watch
every
night
on
the
news.
So
I
couldn't
go
without
saying
that
yeah
council
member
shade,
we
are
not
we've
been
asked
by
the
fire
marshal
not
to
do
so,
and
I'm
gonna
ask
everybody
just
in
your
most
vivid
imagination,
to
shine
your
light
and
these
efforts
to
remember
the
holocaust
and
to
help
our
brothers
and
sisters
in
ukraine.
A
So
next
up
we
have
our
proclamation
recognizing
the
american
red
cross,
and
I
would
like
to
invite
my
friend
and
our
friend
katarina
friargie
fjording,
to
come
forward.
She
is
the
board
cha
chair
this
year
of
the
low
country
chapter
of
the
american
red
cross
and
please
come
up
and
join
me
katarina
and
for
you
that
don't
know
her.
She
is
a
big
wig
with
volvo
and
she
really
got
the
volvo
plant
going
here
in
charleston
and
we're
so
thankful
to
you
for
that
work.
You've
done
as
well.
A
So,
whereas
in
times
of
crisis,
people
in
charleston
come
together
to
care
for
one
another,
as
I
just
pointed
out,
this
humanitarian
spirit
is
part
of
the
foundation
of
our
community
and
is
exemplified
by
american
red
cross
volunteers
and
donors
in
1881,
clara
barton,
you
all
remember
that
name
founded
the
american
red
cross,
turning
her
steadfast
dedication
for
helping
others
into
a
bold
mission
of
preventing
and
alleviating
people's
suffering.
Today,
more
than
140
years
later,
we
honor
the
kindness
and
generosity
of
red
cross
volunteers
here
in
charleston
who
continue
to
carry
out
clara's
life-saving
legacy.
A
They
join
the
millions
of
people
across
the
united
states
who
volunteer,
give
blood
donate
financially
or
learn
vital
life-preserving
skills
through
the
red
cross,
whereas
in
charleston
the
contributions
of
local
red
cross
volunteers
give
hope
to
the
most
vulnerable
in
their
darkest
hours,
whether
it's
providing
emergency,
shelter,
food
and
comfort
for
families
devastated
by
local
disasters
like
home
fires.
In
our
case
recently,
apartment
fires,
50
plus
units,
were
dislocated
the
red
cross.
A
We
dedicate
the
month
of
march
to
all
those
who
continued
to
advance
the
noble
legacy
of
american
red
cross
founder,
clara
barton,
who
lived
by
her
words
quote.
You
must
never
think
of
anything
except
the
need
and
how
to
meet
it.
We
ask
others
to
join
in
this
commitment
to
give
back
in
our
community.
Now,
therefore,
I
john
j
techenberg
mayor
of
the
city
of
charleston
proclaimed
march
2022,
as
american
red
cross
month
in
the
city
of
charleston
katarina.
G
The
way
I
grew
up-
and
many
of
us
here
are
privileged
because
we
are
at
the
giving
end
and
not
receiving
end
of
the
red
cross.
Not
everyone
is
that
lucky,
I
do
remember
as
a
child
in
our
ancestral
home,
which
is
very
close
to
the
norwegian
border
on
the
swedish
west
coast.
We
had
this
little
room
that
we
used
as
extra
guest
room
and
behind
the
drape.
There
were
all
these
military
clothes
hanging,
mainly
the
ones
with
camouflage
for
snow.
G
G
It's
because
it's
a
non-political
organization,
we
cannot
afford
to
be
political.
I
get
a
lot
of
questions
and
not
just
myself
by
red
cross
in
these
times.
Why
aren't
you
making
statements
about
ukraine
because
we
will
not
put
our
people,
staff
and
volunteers
in
danger
so
right
now
there
are
people
in
ukraine
who
facing
the
very
tragic
dilemma
of,
should
they
leave
their
home
country
to
keep
their
families
safe
and
actually
flee
in
to
russia,
because
they're
so
close
to
the
russian
border,
that
that's
the
safest
thing
for
them
to
do.
G
The
red
cross
is
on
both
sides
of
those
borders,
helping
all
these
families
who
have
to
leave
everything
and
it's
the
same
in
some
other
places,
obviously
other
borders
towards
the
other
countries.
So
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
also
want
to
talk
about
a
few
facts.
I
want
to
thank
the
city
of
charleston
for
being
such
a
great
supporter
of
the
red
cross
and
the
county
and
the
community.
G
We
hated
directly
1200
people
and
we
responded
only
in
the
low
country
to
almost
400
disasters.
This
is
a
non-evacuation
year.
Remember.
We
had
some
years
where
we
had
to
evacuate
twice
where
we
keep
people
in
shelters
for
a
really
long
time,
but
360
disasters
for
someone
it
is
real
and
then,
of
course
we
do
aid
financially
directly.
Some
may
take
him
and
mention
a
few
during
the
fires
last
year
it
mounted
actually
to
a
quarter
of
a
million.
So
it's
a
lot
so
again.
Thank
you
for
your
support.
Thank
you
for
running
blood
rise.
G
A
B
Okay,
sorry
about
that
all
right
evening,
mayor
and
council,
okay,
so
this
is
a
public
hearing
on
the
road
abandonment
of
ackerman
court.
This
is
in
relation
to
courier
square
phase,
two
which
they're
still
in
the
early
planning
stages,
but
this
is
one
of
the
phases
that
they
need
to
get
through.
This
is
along
line
street
in
king
street,
with
saint
philip,
it's
half
a
block,
so
they
petitioned
for
the
road
abandonment
on
september.
17
2021
public
works
committee
heard
this
in
october
of
2021
and
approved
it
moving
forward.
B
So
this
is
the
public
hearing
stage
here.
Tom
o'brien
asked
me
to
let
you
all
know
that
we
sent
out
notices
to
all
utility
companies,
and
dominion
is
the
only
one
that
responded
with
a
request
that
they
have
the
potential
for
an
easement
for
overhead
secondary
lines
at
236,
st
philip,
but
that
could
actually
change
once
the
actual
plans
are
developed.
So
that's
where
we
are
also,
just
you
know.
B
The
road
is
adjacent
to
a
piece
of
private
property
owned
by
the
keynes,
and
the
developer
was
working
with
them
privately
to
try
and
work
out
a
settlement.
But
now
we
just
decided
to
go
ahead
and
cut
the
road
in
half,
give
half
to
the
canes
for
their
property
and
then
the
other
half
would
go
to
the
developer
as
the
process
normally
plays
out
any
questions.
A
B
K
I
want
to
be
very
clear
on
something
on
freedom
of
speech.
I
told
teddy
pryders
with
your
speech,
it's
vitally
important
when
you
put
your
speech
out
there,
that
your
speech
could
be
given
to
liars
and
local
state
and
federal
police
that
can
lie
to
people
and
other
people
about
you
and
deny
you
your
constitutional
rights.
K
A
L
M
So
this
is
e2,
it's
a
rezoning!
It's
on
meeting
street.
This
is
on
meeting
street
right
near
where
the
I-26
off-ramp
comes
into
the
downtown.
It
is
a
combination
of
five
different
parcels,
three
of
which
are
owned
by
the
the
the
applicant
as
well
as
two
that
are
owned
by
the
city.
They're,
going
to
be
part
of
that
ultimate
development
on
this
site,
we're
going
to
have
parcels,
459,
0.050407
and
079,
move
from
the
accommodations
district
a1
to
the
a4.
M
That
would
allow
for
a
100
room
hotel
and
we
would
also
include
properties
that
are
owned
by
the
city,
which
are
parcels,
216
and
222
adjacent
to
the
south.
Coming
up
to
in
line
with
where
that
cooper
street
right-of-way
could
be.
Those
will
also
be
part
of
that
a4,
accommodations,
overlay
I'll
show
you
some
images
of
the
site.
This
is
in
our
comprehensive
plan
as
our
city
center
designation
for
the
most
intense
type
of
development.
M
M
Another
image
from
lee
street
at
meeting-
and
here
we
have
across
the
street
and
across
the
street
south
of
cooper-
and
this
is
just
some
information-
what
the
accommodation
zones
are
again.
This
would
allow
for
the
100
room
on
the
site,
and
the
planning
commission
recommended
approval
five
to
zero
for
these
changes.
K
Sir,
this
will
probably
be
a
standard
comment,
anthony
bryant
again
anthony
g
bryant
versus
the
administrative
officers
of
the
united
states
attorney
courts,
because
130
federal
judges
in
this
country
have
not
disclosed
their
stock
exchanges,
their
trades
and
family
members,
and
so
this
is
like
we
want
to
know
whether
or
not
any
of
you
have
any
interest
and
any
any
anything
coming
before
this
body
now
any
if
you're
going
to
come
at
the
mail,
we
need
to
know
if
everybody
got
any
conflicts
interest
or
all
these.
Those.
N
Yes,
sir,
yes,
I
am
richard
guy
with
ls3p
I'm
here
for
mr
patel.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
mr
patel
purchased
this
property
many
many
years
ago
and
held
off
on
the
potential
development
until
the
city
worked
a
lot
of
things
out,
and
this
is
it's
a
it's
a
great
location,
it's
a
gateway
site.
If
there
ever
was
one
and
a
hotel,
a
welcoming
building
would
be
an
awesome
use
for
this
particular
location.
Thank
you.
N
M
F
D
F
O
You
know
the
property
it
was
we
were
talking
about.
Now
is
the
district.
I
represent
that
property
that
was
approved
a
long
time
ago.
A
long
time
ago
was
proved.
We
were
just
waiting.
Waiting
waiting
to
get
to
the
city
can
get
some
other
things.
Entities
are
together,
but
this
was
always
always
you
know
approved
and
the
owners.
I
have
spoken
to
him
a
lot.
I
had
them
go
before
the
neighborhood
association,
mr
did
and
the
association
didn't
have
a
problem
with
it.
So
that's
why
we
went
and
had
approved
during
that
time.
O
So
it's
waiting
for
the
city
to
finish
up
what
they
needed
to
do,
and
that's
why
it's
back
here
today,
but
the
neighborhoods,
the
community
is
satisfied
with
it,
and
so
once
the
community
is
satisfied
with
it,
I
don't
have
a
problem
with
it
and
they'll
be
working
with
the
community
and
doing
some
other
things
also,
so
that's
another
plus
for
the
community
on
the
east
side.
So
that's
all.
I
need
to
say.
E
M
E
These
are
the
questions
that
sorry
I'm
gonna.
Can
I
add
to
that
I
mean
these
are
the
questions
I
get
that
folks
in
the
general
public.
Don't
understand
that
this
was
approved
years
ago,
so
when
they
see
the
building
of
this
hotel,
you
know
I
just
want
to
be
able
to
explain
to
them
that
you
know
this.
This
occurred
not
necessarily
on
my
watch,
but
this
is
approved
previous
consoles.
D
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
and
jason
just
to
piggyback
on
that.
You
know.
Even
if
we
approve
this
today,
you
know
nobody
has
a
right
to
build
a
hotel
by
dent
of
the
fact
they're
in
the
accommodations
overlay.
They
still
have
to
go
to
the
bza
for
a
special
exception
for
a
hotel,
so
there's
a
whole
another
layer
of
review
and
opportunity
for
public
comment
and
under
the
accommodations
regulations
that
have
been
tweaked
several
times
over
the
last
several
years.
D
O
That's
already
been
done
so
yes,
so
it's!
The
next
step
is
when
they're
gonna
start
building
it
and,
like
I
said
this
is
attraction
for
the
east
side,
because
they
are
ready
for
it.
They
approved
it
and
they're
satisfied
with
it,
even
with
the
the
home
that
the
housing
that
we
built
there
when
I
pitched
to
have
that
done
and
that
whole
track,
but
I
placed
you,
can
be
voted
on.
This
council
had
the
whole
track
for
affordable
housing
and
I'm
going
to
make
sure.
O
O
I
mean
beautiful
homes
that
when
the
bridge
came
down,
that
means
a
lot
of
people
lost
a
lot
of
homes
there,
and
I
had
a
lot
of
seniors
that
died
because
they
didn't
want
to
move,
and
a
lot
of
people
know
the
history
of
that.
But
the
history
was
that
they
moved
because
of
the
yacht
auditorium.
They
moved
because
of
the
september
clock
and
they
had
to
move
again
when
the
birds
came
down
and
some
of
my
seniors
died
because
they
didn't
want
to
move.
So
that
was
a
very
touchy
situation
in
there.
O
So
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
knit
this
community
back
together
by
building
homes
back
dehexter,
that
we
can
build
single-family
homes
back,
I
said
multi-family
we
can
so
that's
what
we're
doing
so.
You
will
find
this,
then,
when
you
are
there
for
no
kids
to
play
in
the
yard,
because
they
say
the
dx
is
contaminated,
so
you
can't
play
in
the
yards
and
stuff.
So
that's
why
most
of
us
will
be
multi-family.
So
you
know
that
we
did
the
first
group
and
the
second
phase
is
the
james
lewis.
O
Complex
is
coming
up
and
that's
going
to
be
18
months
to
finish
that
and
once
that's
completed
then
we'll
go
on
to
the
next
phase,
which
is
going
to
be
phase
three
and
then
we'll
see
what
happened
with
the
the
property.
That's
going
near,
morrison
drive.
Also.
We
have
south
carolina
state
university.
We
I'm
waiting
for
that
to
be
through
ribbon
cutting.
We
hopefully,
would
have
that
next
month
in
april
they
told
me
so
the
people
from
washington
dc
want
to
come
down
here
to
that
ground
break
to
the
ribbon
cutting.
O
So
I'm
talking
with
david
foster
to
make
sure
that's
going
to
happen.
So
once
we
hear
that,
then
we
will
I'll
be
able
to
let
the
council
know
they'll
be
getting
some
information
on
that
and
that's
going
to
be
a
historical
event.
That's
the
first
time
in
history
that
a
historical
african-american
university
have
their
presence
in
the
city
of
charleston
first
time,
and
so
it's
not
the
university
itself,
but
it's
a
part
of
it
because
it's
a
community
center,
but
it's
the
community
center,
that's
going
to
serve
the
community.
O
The
whole
charleston
community
is
built
right
on
the
east
side
there,
along
with
the
pool
that
we
renovated.
So
it's
a
lot
of
different
entities.
That's
happening
there
to
knit
that
community
back
together
and
that's
what
I
was
fighting
for
for
a
long
time.
So
it's
not
going
to
be
it's
coming
into
position
now.
Thank
you.
J
Very
briefly,
mr
mayor,
I
think
just
looking
at
this
and
if
you
look
at
where
it
is
in
the
world,
I
I
really
want
to
applaud
the
planning
commission
for
sort
of
having
some
vision
on
this.
Having
seen
what's
been
going
on
around
in
that
area,
I
mean
you
could
build
a
whole
bunch
more
apartments
up
there
or
right
there,
where
you
get
off
of
I-26
at
the
meeting
street
ramp,
you're
gonna
have
an
accommodation,
juice
right
there.
It
seems
to
me
it
fits
in
really
well,
and
I
think
the
neighborhood
saw
that
as
well.
J
P
J
O
The
thunderguard
also
is
being
renovated
at
a
particular
building
with
a
thundercard
so
that
I
had
so
many
friends
there.
I
couldn't
ride
on
motorcycles
but
anyways
to
go
there,
but
they
have
a
lot
of
they
have
that's
being
renovated.
Now
it's
a
a
business
I
think
coming
off
at
hanover
street
will
be
moving
there.
O
They'll
be
leasing
that
particular
underground
building,
so
they're
renovating
it
now,
and
then
we
also
have
another
hotel
might
be
coming
that
was
approved
years
ago
on
the
corner
of
huge
and
meeting
street
and
he
was
approved
before
anyone.
This
other
hotel
was
built.
I
don't
know,
what's
taking
him
so
long,
but
he
had
some
problems
and
I
think
he
still,
he
still
might
be
a
hotel.
I
don't
know,
but
that's
yeah
buck.
So
I
hope
he
I
don't
know.
O
What's
going
to
happen,
I'm
just
waiting
for
him
to
come
back
to
me
because
he
had
he
was
turned
on
by
the
bar
and
he
got
then
he
went
back
and
had
a
conceptual
agreement
so
approval.
So
I
don't
know
what's
happening
right
now
with
it.
So
that's
another
hotel
might
be
coming
right
by
I-26
as
you
go
up
to
going
to
my
pleasant,
so
we're
waiting
for
that.
So
there'll
be
another
hotel
coming.
If
there's
still
plan
to
do
it.
A
All
right
any
other
comments
or
questions
hearing
none
for
first
reading,
all
in
favor,
please
say
I
up
for
me:
oh
oh,
we
need
a
motion
on
the
floor.
First,
I
thought
we
had
one.
We
have
a
motion
to
approve
and
a
second
any
further
discussion,
question
all
in
favor,
say
aye,
any
opposed
the
eyes
haven't.
M
This
is
the
one
I
think
mr
mitchell
was
also
referencing,
its
same
owner
just
up
the
street
at
meeting
and
ug
street,
and
this
is
a
request
to
rezone
the
actual
corner
parcel
at
590
meeting
street.
It's
about
a
quarter
acre
to
go
from
general
business
and
the
five-story
old
city
height
district
to
upper
peninsula,
which
is
our
up
district
and
the
4-12
story,
old
city,
height
district
and
also
to
add
the
accommodations
classification
and
so
on.
This
site.
M
The
same
hunt
district
and
allow
for
that
hotel
to
cover
across
this
spot
both
these
properties
and
that
would
then
necessitate
another
visit
to
the
bca
for
a
new
special
exception
on
that.
But
that
is
the
request
here
and
just
to
give
you
orientation.
Of
course,
yuji
street
is
running
east
west
here,
roughly
there's
new
apartment
building,
candy
corner
the
grace
homes
owned
by
the
housing
authority
or
to
the
directly
across
meeting
street.
There
is
a
relatively
recent
church
to
the
south.
M
M
This
is
in
our
city
center
area
in
the
comprehensive
plan,
and
then
the
aerial
image
shows
there's
an
existing
one-story
structure.
That's
in
a
dilapidated
condition
here,
there's
a
view
of
it
from
the
street
and
here's
the
intersection
looking
south
on
meeting
street,
and
here
it
is
looking
wet
east
on
yuji
street
and
that
is
caddy
corner
the
new
apartment
complex
there.
The
meeting
street
lofts
and
the
planning
commission
did
review
this
and
recommend
approval
5-0.
K
Anthony
bryant,
again
gee
bryant
versus
administrative
officers
of
the
united
states,
courts
for
130,
federal
judges
that
didn't
pay
and
then
close
holy
their
trades.
For
the
record,
I
had
my
first
home
on
eg
street.
I
sold
my
house
to
a
church
on
huge
street
years
ago.
It
was
a
name
by
god
named
raquel
campbell
and
anthony
g
bryant,
who
was
on
carolina
gang
with
warren
pepper
and
mr
seekins
and
miss
sin,
and
they
talked
about
their
their.
K
What
was
going
to
happen
really
to
black
people
right
that
the
market,
the
unintended
consequence
of
the
market,
would
wipe
us
out
because
we
don't
get
capital,
we
don't
get
any
capital,
we
don't
get
good
insurance.
So
therefore,
the
market
wiped
us
out.
That's
the
unintended
conference
of
markets,
that's
adam
smith
and
thomas
soul,
okay,
so
so
I'm
I'm
sick
and
tired
of
him.
Black
people
sit
up
in
council
chambers
and
act
like
the
market
didn't
devastate
us.
N
Yes,
richard
guy
with
all
s3p
representing
the
montford
group,
mr
patel
did
acquire
the
corner
and
that's
why
there's
been
a
delay.
This
thing
has
gone
to
bza,
but
it's
going
to
have
to
go
back
because
they're
going
to
make
it
a
mixed-use
building.
It
will
have
some
residences
a
few
number,
so
it
won't
have
to
be
in
that
zone
but
it'll
be
covering
all
the
affordable
housing.
A
D
N
Required
part,
so
a
lot
of
that
came
up
in
the
planning
commission
meeting
and
mr
patel
has
told
us
that
he
doesn't
need
to
go
more
than
five
stories.
A
long
meeting.
As
you
know,
all
along
meeting
street
the
height
is
lower
at
the
street
and
steps
up
into
the
property.
He
has
every
intention
of
following
that
normal
pattern
in
the
city,
and
we
will
just
we
just
need
for
those
to
connect,
because
the
line
is
going
to
be
a
little
bit.
N
J
J
J
O
Just
let
them
know
what
was
happening
in
that
particular
area
was
going
to
happen
and
then
he
sold
it
so
anyway.
So
after
so
it
went
to
mr
patel
and
I
meet
with
him
all
the
time.
Liam
knows
exactly
what
we
are
looking
for
in
that
particular
area
and
he's
working
with
me
anything
I
want
to
see
there
that's
what's
going
there
and
I
told
him
I
said:
no,
we
not
you're
not
going
too
high.
O
I
think
really
know
how
I
go.
I
said
it's
not
too
high
we're
not
going
too
high
there
and
that's
part
of
the
neighborhood
association
came
to
me.
The
president.
We
met
with
the
president
met
with
us
too.
We
all
met
across
the
street
and
with
greater
refuge
during
that
time,
when
chase
had
it
and
then
after
chase
owed
then
came
back,
but
it
still
was
going
to
be
a
hotel
regardless,
and
I
think
mr
patel
is
going
to
do
a
mixture
there
with
some
housing
there.
O
It's
going
to
be
some
affordable
housing
there,
along
with
the
small
boutique
hotel
there,
and
so
that's
the
changes
that
we
made
to
put
some
housing
there,
because
I
told
them.
I
would
like
to
see
some
housing
in
that
particular
area,
so
some
people
there
can
still
be
able
to
live
in
that
particular
in
that
particular
area
there.
So
that's
the
way.
It
is
right
now.
A
L
L
L
Now
the
law
got
his
right
leg
cut
off.
So
when
I
look
at
that,
as
a
sign,
I'm
seeing
that
our
city
is
being
shown
that
the
law,
the
law
is
being
run
on
one
leg
because
they
got
the
other
one
cut
off
the
right
one
cut
off
when,
in
this
conference
chairman
here
and
I've
been
coming
down
here,
close
to
30
years
when
people
weren't
many
of
you
all
wasn't
here,
they
said
the
hotel
wasn't
going
up,
but
three
stories,
three
stories.
L
R
J
O
This
was
done
for
a
while
a
while
back.
This
was
done
for
a
while
back
and
that
piece
of
property
up
front
you
see
was
years
ago.
It
was
a
beauty
shop,
but
no
piece
right
there
on
the
front,
ebony
beauty
every
beauty
shop
long
years
ago
see
we
grew
up
around
there,
so
I
can
long
years
ago.
So
then
it
was
closed.
My
people
went
seven,
ten,
seven,
eight
nine
ten
years,
and
so
they
eventually
the
young
man
who
owned
it
had
owned
the
pizza
pizza
business.
O
They
have,
they
have
moved
out
of
the
peninsula.
It
sold
that
too.
That's
that's
going
to
be
housing
there
in
that
blue
area
right
next
to
it
and
that's
going
to
be
renovated
pretty
soon,
but
he
is
still
letting
the
church
use
it.
The
owner,
who
bought
the
church
that
the
church
uses
because
they're
building
a
church
on
cross
county
road,
so
I
met
with
them
so
that
all
this
has
already
been
done
in
that
particular
area.
So
it's
going
to
be
housing
in
that
blue
area.
O
All
housing
is
going
to
be
in
that
blue
area
there,
and
so
all
that
that's
been
approving
everything
through
the
vr
and
everything
before,
but
we
just
right
now
getting
the
hotel
that
small
hotel
there
and
across
the
street.
Mr
million
point
that
there's
another
hotel
that
was
approved
must
be
five
six
seven
eight
years
ago,
and
that
was
buck
more
than
ten
years
ago.
It
might
have
been
ten
years
ago.
O
That's
the
one
buck
on
councilman
seeking,
and
that
was
the
first
hotel
approved
in
the
in
the
peninsula
before
any
of
these
other
hotels
was
approved,
but
then
I
think
he's
gonna
draw
back
on.
I
don't
know
what
he's
doing
with
it
yet,
but
it
was
approved.
He
got
conceptual
agreement
first,
he
didn't
like
the
design,
the
vr
didn't
like
the
design.
O
So
we
had
to
go
back
and
forth
back
and
forth
back
and
forth
and
they
gave
him
conceptual
agreement
on
the
sexual
approval
on
their
design,
but
he
still
didn't
haven't
started
anything
yet.
So
I
was
meeting
with
these
people
like
10
15
years
ago,
with
all
these
things,
like
that,
any
other
questions
or
comments.
A
A
Sir,
so
up
allows
four
up
to
12
right,
yes,
sir,
if
they
earn
the
points,
and
so
I
I
certainly
honor
the
comments
if
they
plan
to
keep
this
at
five
stories
and
step
up.
But
it
does
concern
me
that
a
future
owner
or
someone
down
the
road
might
do
something
different.
That
could
be
a
long
time
from
now,
but
it's
unlikely
that
these
this
property
across
the
street
is
going
to
change,
because
those
are
kind
of
historic
houses
and
they're
only
two
or
two
and
a
half
stories
high.
A
And
if
somebody
ever
put
a
12
story,
something
here
on
the
corner,
I
think
it
would
be.
It
would
be
out
of
out
of
step
out
of
character.
So
is
there
some
way
to
to
to
limit
the
height,
give
them
what
they
need
on
the
zoning,
but
but
to
limit
the
height
on
it.
Just
to
make
sure
that
that
step
back
and
step
up
occurs.
M
Because
it's
a
standard
rezoning
council
can't
put
conditions
on
it
if
it
was
a
putt
or
something
like
that,
you
could.
You
know
they'd
have
to
earn
12
stories
through
the
points
system,
which
would
be
difficult.
You
know,
because
a
lot
of
points
go
to
things
like
you
know,
open
spaces
and
things
like
that
and
it's
such
a
tight
site.
It
would
be
tough
to
provide
enough
open
space
to
get
to
12
stories,
for
example.
So
I
think
it's
going
to
be
difficult.
M
I
think
that
while
bar
can't
take
the
height
away,
I
think
they
would
be
encouraging
them
to
respect
the
building.
That's
to
the
south.
That
has
the
five
stories
and
the
buildings
that
are
across
the
street.
That
are
two
stories
there
and,
as
mr
gal
said,
you
know
that
the
first,
the
individual
who
owns
it
now,
mr
patel,
does
not
have
an
intention
of
going
above
five
stories
on
it.
M
I
mean
the
only
requirement
as
far
as
setbacks
is
that
you
have
to
have
at
least
a
I
think.
If
you
go
above
five
floors
or
maybe
six
floors,
you
have
to
have
at
least
a
ten
foot
sidewalk
which
the
sidewalks
are
pretty
narrow,
so
you'd
have
to
be
backing
up
a
little
bit
for
that
now,
bar
can
kind
of
mold
and
ask
them
to
create
some
more
spaces.
Things
like
that
too.
A
And
and
to
let
you
all
know-
and
I
think
mr
gao
mentioned
this-
that
there's
a
a
little
taking
that's
contemplated
by
the
highway
department
when
they
do
the
uc
street
escape,
so
I
think
they're
planning
on
taking
10
feet
on
the
corner.
I
don't
know
if
it
wraps
all
the
way
down
to
the
end
of
the
property
line.
Do
you
know.
M
O
The
abandonment
just
give
him
that
piece
of
strength
in
the
back,
so
he'll
have
that
you
can
drive
it
back
and
turn
around
and
come
back
out.
So
all
that's
in
that
particular
area
there
but
see
you
have
two
different
neighborhood
associations
once
you
cross
fuji
street
to
the
north,
that's
east
central!
O
So
when
you
on
the
south
side
is
the
east
side,
so
you
have
that
street
split
two
different
neighborhood
associations
in
that
particular
area.
So
that's
jenkins!
On
that
side,
you
have
a
new
president
on
the
east
side.
So
I
had
to
work
with
both
of
them
to
make
sure
that
they
are
in
agreement
with
this,
even
though
they
might
not.
In
that
district
represent
this
district
you're
still
butting
them
they're
closer
like
neighbors,
so
you
still
have
to
work
together
with
one
another.
H
M
District
all
properties
that
we've
zoned
up
go
to
the
412
district,
that's
a
height
district
that
was
set
up
just
for
the
up
zoning
because
you
have
to
earn
the
heights
above
four
stories
via
the
points
of
the
up.
Zoning,
for
you
know
like
again
putting
affordable
housing
in
putting
in
public
spaces
putting
in
accoutrements
for
for
bicycles,.
H
M
H
I
mean
obviously
there's
a
situation.
It's
going
to
be
overpowering,
being
12,
potentially
12
stories.
He
has
the
right
to
do
it,
whether
he'll
do
it
or
not
it's
his
discretion,
but
under
our
ordinance
once
we
vote
this
he'll
have
the
right
to
do
it.
Why
don't
we
have
something
in
our
zoning
ordinance
now?
That
means
we
need
to
do
it
at
a
later
date.
That
does
what
the
mayor's
actually
saying.
I
mean
we
want
to
go
forward
with
this
thing,
but
potentially
in
12
stories
is
overpowering
on
that
corner.
A
H
O
O
J
M
And
so
I
don't
know
how
we
would
logistically
handle
that,
because
you'd
have
this
portion,
that
was
the
up
zoning
earning
its
height
through
the
different
points,
and
then
the
gb
is
just
automatic.
At
present,
you've
got
five
stories
there.
Well
if
they
want
to
go
across
the
property
lines,
why
wouldn't
you
just
put
it
through
as
a
pud?
A
All
right,
well,
I'm
going
to
vote
to
give
this
first
reading,
but
I'm
going
to
ask
our
staff
to
come
back
to
us
with
the
revision
of
up
zoning,
to
allow
some
flexibility
on
height
allowance
in
in
cases
like
this
and
and
I
don't
plan
to
give
it
a
yes
vote
on
second
or
third
reading.
Until
we
have
that
approved.
I
think
the
timeline
of
the
project
is
such
that
that
that
would
be
okay,
I
hope
so,
but
I
think
it's
appropriate
for
us
to
to
limit
it
at
that
corner
myself.
J
Would
just
ask
that,
as
as
you
do
that,
let's
do
an
analysis
on
this
lot,
vis-a-vis,
the
u.p
zoning-
I
don't
believe
I
haven't
looked
at
the
particulars
of
it
in
a
while,
but
there's
no
way
they're
going
to
get
enough
points
to
get
anywhere
near
12
stories.
Secondly,
remember
this
is
not
in
three
dimensions:
what's
going
to
be
across
the
street,
what's
right,
behind
the
northern
parcels,
there
is
the
on-ramp
to
the
highway
and
the
highway
so
is
looking
at
it
and
a
project
like
that.
J
I
mean
you're,
not
it's
not
going
to
block
anything
other
than
a
highway
if
it
goes
to
five
or
six
stories
and
right
there
across
the
street.
You
counted
mayor
on
the
street
face,
but
actually,
if
you
go
back
behind,
it
goes
up
a
couple
more
stories
as
the
ramp
comes
back
behind
it.
So
I
think
if
we're
gonna
go
redo
a
whole
zoning
district.
Let's
look
at
this
lot.
J
O
O
A
M
M
Now
this
was
a
item
that
was
recommended
for
disapproval
by
the
planning
commission.
I
think
there
were
concerns
about
impacts
to
the
neighborhood
here
there
was
no
one
from
the
neighborhood
who
spoke
in
this.
I
don't
know
if
anybody
will
be
here
tonight
or
not,
but
I
did
want
to
outline
a
few
things
to
kind
of
explain
why
staff
was
supportive
of
this
request,
and
that
is
that
essentially
wapu
road
in
this
location
is
a
commercial
street.
M
M
So
there
is
a
real
mix
of
commercial
zonings.
There
are
some
former
houses
that
are
here
that
are
commercially
zoned
and
some
are
utilized
in
a
commercial
fashion.
Some
are
still
residences,
but
the
commercial
designations
have
been
in
this
area
for
a
good
while
at
least
20
to
30
years.
I
would
estimate
the
county's
overlay
went
on
top
of
properties
that
I
believe
were
already
commercial,
but
it
was
implemented,
probably
seven
or
eight
years
ago.
So
it's
been
a
good.
While
there
has
been
commercial
in
this
corridor
I'll
show
you
some
images
of
it.
M
This
shows
up
in
our
suburban
designation,
so
that
does
allow
for
limited
commercials
such
as
ct,
which
is
what
the
applicant
is
requesting
here.
Here's
an
aerial
image
of
the
property,
and
then
here
you
see
it
from
the
street.
It's
currently
an
office.
It
has
parking
to
the
side
of
it
has
a
sign
out
in
front,
so
you
get
a
sense
of
what's
going
on
in
the
area.
This
is
looking
down
wapu
road.
Again,
you
see
the
subject
property
with
the
sign
on
the
left.
M
The
building
on
the
right
is
owned,
general
business,
although
it
may
still
be
residentially
zoned,
it
is
owned,
general
business
and
then
there's
the
subject:
property
on
the
right
again
and
so
planning
commission
did
recommend
disapproval.
But
from
a
staff
standpoint
we
felt
like
it
was
an
appropriate
request,
because
it's
a
commercial
card.
K
That'll
be
simple:
I
support
staff's
position.
I
served
on
the
board
many
many
years
ago.
These
overlay
districts
are
very
problematic
and
based
on
the
fact
that
you're,
allowing
other
uses
to
be
approved
tonight
large
uses
will
be
approved.
Tonight,
it's
going
to
absorb
a
lot
of
water,
a
lot
of
sewer
a
whole
lot
of
stuff.
Why
would
this
this
just
small
business
suffer
because
of
because
of
something
happened
20
years
ago,
because
these
entitlements
all
run
together
for
20
30
years.
So
why
not
disapprove
this
and
move
on.
P
Yes,
sir,
good
afternoon
evening,
my
name
is
keen
mclaughlin,
I'm
representing
john
and
gene
peters.
Gene
peters
runs
a
it's
jean's
workshop,
which
is
basically
a
high-end
window,
fabrication
and
drapery
shop.
She
makes
curtains.
They
currently
have
an
operation
on
sam
rittenberg,
as
well
as
the
studio
at
this
particular
site
right
here.
They
want
to
co-locate
them
and
bring
them
together.
So
that's
why
we're
seeking
rezoning?
P
We
searched
for
a
alterations,
fabrication
manufacturing
within
the
zoning
code.
We
couldn't
really
find
anything
that
was
suitable
in
the
geo
category,
so
I
were
looking
for
ct.
We're
fabricating
window
coverings.
Draperies
is
what
we're
doing.
I
I
don't
think
that's
going
to
be
too
intense
of
a
use.
Architecturally.
P
The
corridor
is
pretty
much
already
commercial,
so
we
see
no
reason
why
they
disapprove
this.
We
feel
that
we're
going
to
actually
add
some
positive
attributes
to
the
area
going
to
bring
the
building
forward,
build
a
small
area
add
on
to
the
building
behind,
so
that
all
the
all
the
work
can
be
done
in
one
area.
P
When
you
look
at
the
street,
there's
already
a
couple
of
there's
a
gas
station,
a
couple
title
shop
areas
and
a
warehouse
that
does
some
sort
of
mma
wrestling,
so
I
think
our
use
is
very
appropriate
to
the
area.
That's
what
we're
caught
up
on
is,
I
guess,
use
and
and
context.
I
think
our
context
and
character
is
very
appropriate
and
I
think
the
use
is
very
appropriate.
So
thank
you
very
much.
A
R
C
M
The
general
office,
so
the
general
office
that
it's
currently
zoned
would
just
allow
office
type
uses
and
office
type
activities.
Hence
the
reason
that
the
design
studio
can't
locate
there
if
they're
going
to
have
the
stitching
of
drapes
and
things
like
that,
the
seamstress
type
work.
So
in
ct
you
can
have
limited
commercial
type
uses.
There
are
square
footage
limitations.
M
You
can
have
small
restaurants,
but
in
an
instance
like
this,
you
wouldn't
be
able
to
have
outdoor
dining
because
of
the
close
proximity
of
residents
of
residential
zoning.
You
can
have
offices,
you
could
have
residential
things
like
that,
but
it's
a
transitional
type
of
commercial
that
we
feel
is
appropriate
when
you've
got
adjacent
residential
units
and
and.
C
Donna
jacobs
was
the
on
the
planning
commission.
I
I
talked
with
her
about
this
and
her
concern,
and
it
was
a
unanimous
vote
to
disapprove
was
that
the
a
subsequent
owner
could
take
this
property
and
change
it
from
a
drapery
shop
to
something
more,
I
think
invasive
is
what
they
were
concerned
about.
So
this
cannot
be
used
for
other
purposes,
such
as
a
shooting
range,
an
indoor
shooting
range.
C
There
are
residences
that
come
close
to
this.
This
was
built
as
a
resident.
It's
right
now.
I
believe
it's
a
commercial
use
being
taken
place
in
there,
so
it
looks
like
a
shop
of
some
sort.
Retail
shop
going
on
this
does
not
violate
the
spirit
of
plan
west
ashley.
We
double
checked
that
this
is
going
to
be.
It
seems
to
be
a
very
non
invasive
type
of
manufacturing,
which
is
grapes,
which
is
a
pretty
cool
thing
to
do
an
old-fashioned
industry
that
things
are
sort.
C
H
A
lot
of
years
ago,
in
the
con
of
mootree
and
rutley's,
I
bought
a
vacant
lot
had
it
rezoned
the
commercial
transition,
because
it
was
about
a
residential
area.
Commercial
transition
is
designed
to
do
just
that
limits.
You
can
put
a
florist
there
in
this
case
this
drapery
shop.
It
has
control
hours
of
operation,
so
nobody
can
be
working
there,
11
12
o'clock
at
night.
H
It's
designed
to
go
from
high
impact
to
a
limited
commercial
use,
as
you
progress
into
the
neighborhood
this,
for
anyone
who
knows
is
a
highly
traveled,
it's
a
little
short
two
blocks,
but
a
ton
of
traffic
goes
through
there.
Okay,
I
wouldn't
want
my
kids
playing
in
the
front
yard
on
wahpoos
road
right
there,
so
I
I
you
know
being
17
years
on
the
planning.
H
Commission
really
don't
like
to
go
against
them,
but
I
think
in
this
case
I
agree
with
councilman
shead
on
this
one,
that
if
you
go
up
to
the
higher
rules
area,
north
of
that,
where
you
see
the
bigger
building
with
the
cc
on
it,
that
used
to
be
the
old
marita
bread
place
and
you
had
delivery
trucks
going
in
and
out
of
there
all
the
time.
Yes,
sir
right
there
all
the
time,
and
that
was
there
for
for
decades.
H
A
A
M
Okay-
and
this
is
on
folly
road-
this
is
1144
and
1150
folly
road.
It's
eight
tenths
of
an
acre
between
the
two
parcels,
they're,
currently
zoned
ro,
and
the
request
is
to
go
to
limited
business,
to
orient
you
to
the
area.
The
walmart
on
folly.
Road
is
just
a
little
bit
further
south
and
across
the
street
there
is
a
retail
center
directly
across
the
street
that
zone
limited
business.
M
M
Here
is
an
aerial
image.
It's
two
former
residential
structures,
one
which
has
already
been
converted
to
some
office
uses
as
the
ro
allows
for
at
present.
Here
they
are
from
the
street
view.
You
can
see
the
sign
that's
out
in
front
for
offices
and
here's
a
look
down
folly,
road.
The
subject
properties
are
on
the
left.
The
retail
center
across
the
street
is
to
the
right-
and
this
is
looking
north
on
folly-
road,
some
of
the
other
commercial
in
the
area
and
to
the
south,
some
of
the
commercial.
M
That's
converted
houses
along
folly,
road
and
again,
that's
the
center,
that's
directly
across
the
street,
its
own
limited
business
as
well,
and
just
the
folly
road
overlay
requirements
which
gives
us
a
staff
extra
level
of
comfort
because
there
are
buffer
requirements.
Things
like
that
and
of
course
we
have
design
review
over
any
exterior
changes
on
the
property
as
well,
and
this
is
just
a
little
bit
more
about
what
those
requirements
are
and
planning
commission
did
recommend
approval
of
this
request.
A
M
M
They
did
not
request
ct.
There
are
some
ct
parcels
that
are
similar
to
this
along
here,
as
well
as
some
lb.
The
lb
still
limits
the
hours
of
operation.
It
has
limits
and
drive-throughs
things
like
that.
So
we
didn't
have
a
huge
concern
with
the
difference.
The
ct
does
have
the
square
footage
limitations,
which
lb
does
not
that's,
probably
the
biggest
difference.
H
M
M
H
E
A
Okay,
I
thought
we
had
a
motion
on
the
floor
already.
Yes,
we
did
right,
but
I'm
glad
to
have
another
one.
Okay,
any
further
discussion,
all
in
favor,
please
say
aye
aye
any
opposed
yeah.
I
was
having
all
right.
This
is
just
first
reading,
it's
just
first
reading.
So
if
he
wants
to
come,
make
comments
to
us
before
next
week,.
M
Is
next
yes,
sir?
So
this
is
an
ordinance
amendment.
This
is
a
little
bit
of
an
unusual
situation,
because
this
ordinance
amendment
comes
from
the
private
sector,
from
a
property
owner
developer
in
town.
Who
is
asking
for
this
amendment
to
our
zooming
ordinance,
which
our
ordinance
does
allow
for
and,
of
course,
it's
been
reviewed
by
the
planning,
commission
and
I'll
go
into
that
in
a
minute.
M
But
this
is
a
amendment
to
our
of
workforce,
housing,
districts
and
opportunity
zones
that
would
allow
for
different
off
street
parking
requirements
for
different
types
of
residential
units,
and
you
should
have
in
your
packets
the
ordinance
what
this
does
is.
It
creates
a
definition
of
a
small
efficiency
dwelling
unit,
a
micro
unit,
and
these
are
things
that
are
being
seen
around
the
country
and
that
the
applicant
is
going
to
talk
to
you
all
a
little
bit
about
this.
M
Our
zoning
administrator
has
gone
through
these
proposed
amendments
and
done
a
few
tweets
that
make
it
fit
in
our
zoning
ordinance
a
little
bit
better.
Our
planning
commission
reviewed
it
their
comments.
Well,
I'm
not
going
to
go
through
the
applicant
provided
exhibit
here,
but
the
planning
commission
did
recommend
approval
of
this
change
and
it
now
comes
to
counsel
for
your
thoughts
and
action.
P
This
small
efficiency
dwelling
unit
only
works
in
areas
that
are
near
the
medical
district
on
a
transit
line.
Bicycle
walk
to
work,
walk
to
a
major
supermarket.
It
works
in
the
what's
in
the
comprehensive
plan
of
the
city
center.
Again
I
said
in
the
medical
district.
It
does
not
work
in
a
lot
of
parts
of
town,
it's
really
made.
So
it's
tran
see,
we
don't
have
a
light
rail,
so
it
really
is
made
for
people
who
don't
really
need
to
drive.
So
what
we
did
is
we
reduced
the
parking
requirement
from
one
to
one?
P
P
I
I
All
I
wanted
was
a
tiny
town
home
in
summerville
430k
and
someone
said:
that's
a
crazy
idea.
Why
do
you
not
live
in
charleston,
and
that
happened?
And
now
I
get
to
live,
I'm
more
invested
in
a
community
that
I
never
thought
I
would
be
able
to
afford
that.
I
would
never
be
a
part
of
and
every
day
these
type
of
events
happen
where
you
have
someone
who's.
I
E
E
Mr
morgan
does
a
wonderful
job,
all
the
staff,
and
we
have
a
lot
of
new
members
of
the
mission,
as
you
all
know,
because
you
all
approve
them
we're
pretty
demanding
a
staff
these
days
and
demanding
of
the
affordable
housing
concerns
that
we
have
and
the
city
has,
and
we
totally
support
this
100
percent.
This
micro
unit
issue
they're
more
affordable
than
what
people
can
get
and
we
feel
like
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense
and
we
know
there's
no
silver
bullet
to
solve
this
problem.
E
You
all
know
that
we
know
that
that's
wearing
satellites
me
on
planning
for
many
years
and
we
wish
we
could
solve
a
lot
of
problems.
You
guys
are
going
to
help
solve
them.
I
know,
but
we
think
this
is
one
ingredient
that
will
help,
but
we
think
relying
on
the
private
sector
is
going
to
be
a
key
ingredient
to
solving
this
problem.
E
We
wish
we
as
a
city-
and
we
have
great
people
and
great
staff-
would
solve
it
on
our
own,
but
we
know
the
private
sector
is
the
key,
because
the
other
one
was
investing
so
we'd
like
to
have
more
interaction
with
them
and
and
actually
having
some
dialogue
with
them
about
that
about
other
ideas
that
we
can
send
to
you
all.
So
we
appreciate
that.
K
Yes,
sir,
I
was
not
going
to
comment
on
this
at
all,
but
I
have
some
some
concerns.
One
concern
is
what
opportunities
on
the
federal
opportunities
owned
by
senator
scott
that's
opportunity
zone.
What
was
in
the
incentives
he
said
opportunity
zones
in
the
process.
What
does
I
believe
is
federal
operations?
Okay,
federal
federal
opportunity
zones,
federal
opportunity
zones
does
not
provide
for
reporting.
K
It
doesn't
give
accurate
reporting
in
terms
of
those
incentives,
some
of
the
enterprise
community
enterprise
zones
from
the
1990s
which
led
to
the
redevelopment
of
the
neck
area
and
others.
So
when
someone
comes
to
the
body
to
be
able
to
again
anthony
bryant,
you
know
that's
my
name,
brian
versus
administrative
office
of
united
states
courts.
Okay.
So
when
someone
comes
to
the
body,
I'm
I'm
not
I'm
not
privy
to
what's
going
on
and
say,
I'm
gonna
create
an
amendment
or
an
ordinance,
and
this
is
something
new.
K
F
J
A
Q
Q
Okay,
I
don't
like
the
fact
that
this
went
to
planning
and
did
not
come
to
the
community
development
committee
of
which
all
land
use
and
zoning
okay
consistent
with
section
2.50
and
I'm
supporting
something
that
council
member
parker
was
concerned
about
at
our
last
meeting.
Okay,
how
do
these
things
get
here
without
us
having
some
input?
I
think
the
fact
that
we've
spent
the
last
hour
so-
and
I
I
understand,
there's
a
need
for
public
hearings,
okay,
but
I
think
it's
very,
very
important
that
we
follow
the
process
mayor.
Q
Q
While
I
support
this
okay,
I
still
think
that
we
need
to
respect
the
process
going
back
to
councilman,
appel
and
councilman
parker
is
concerned
at
our
last
meeting,
and
this
is
a
prime
example
at
least
to
me:
okay,
where
we're
not
following
the
process,
and
we
should.
We
should
give
community
development
an
opportunity
to
review
the
proposed
ordinance
and
make
comments
accordingly,
us
bringing
these
things
to
the
committee
of
a
whole
defeats,
the
purpose
of
the
standing
committees.
Q
Q
So
for
us
going
to
the
committee
of
the
whole,
I
think
it's
inappropriate
without
giving
the
standing
committee
that's
responsible,
that's
responsible
for
these,
an
opportunity
to
review
and
comment
and
possibly
make
it
even
better.
So
I
just
want
the
record
to
reflect
that.
This
should
not
continue
to
happen
that
things
should
go
through
the
appropriate
standing
committee
before
it
goes
to
planning
before
it
comes
to
the
committee
of
a
whole
to
have
an
hour
and
a
half
discussion
on
something
that
we
could
bet
through
the
standing
committee
process.
Q
Q
Q
A
Q
I
A
Q
Q
D
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
and
councilman
gregory.
I
mean
I
cannot
agree
with
you
more
on
what
you
just
said.
I
mean,
I
think,
that
it's
a
shame
frankly,
how
infrequently
the
community
development
committee
meets.
Councilman
shea
had
mentioned
earlier
today
or
may
have
been
councilman
waring
regardless.
I
know
you
all
feel
the
same
way
and
we
talk
a
lot
about
the
two
most
important
issues
facing
the
city,
affordable,
housing
and
flooding.
Public
works
and
utilities
committee
meets
regularly
every
two
weeks.
D
We
do
a
lot
of
really
good
work
and
if
you
look
around
we're
making
some
really
good
progress
on
stormwater
all
over
the
city,
so
I
think
we
can
make
that
same
amount
of
progress
on
the
affordable
housing
issue.
If
we
have
that
community
development
committee
meeting
more
often
so
we
can
do
a
little
bit
more
legislating
from
our
seats
here,
and
you
know
we
can
take
a
recommendation
or
two
from
the
report.
D
D
Nobody
understands
the
market
better
than
the
folks
that
are
on
the
front
lines
of
it
every
single
day,
and
so
I
think
it's
wonderful
that
we
have
somebody
bringing
this
very,
very
exciting,
innovative
measure
forward
to
advance
our
affordable
housing
stock
on
the
peninsula,
and
it's
not
coming
at
the
expense
of
a
dollar
of
city
money.
All
he's
asking
to
do
is
just
change
our
rules
so
that
the
law
of
the
market
and
the
economics
can
work
so
that
developers
can
actually
make
money
building,
affordable
housing.
D
Let
me
let
me
say
that
again,
so
developers
can
make
money
building,
affordable,
housing
that
right
there
is
the
ticket
that
we
can
solve
in
this
city.
If
we,
you
know,
come
up
well,
first,
let's
pass
this,
but
come
up
with
some
other
ordinances,
very,
very
much
like
this,
so
we
can
really
get
the
private
sector
engaged
on
solving
this
issue.
D
Our
comp
plan
calls
for
adding
16
000,
affordable
units
in
the
peninsula
over
the
next
decade.
You
know
we
honored
don
cameron
here
several
months
ago
and
don's
had
an
unbelievable
career,
leading
the
charleston
housing
authority
for
decades.
I
think
it
was
close
to
40
years
and
we
talked
about
in
his
commemoration
or
his
honoring,
rather
that
he
had
brought
two
and
a
half
thousand
units
of
affordable
housing
to
the
market
in
forty
years.
D
Okay,
we
need
sixteen
thousand
over
the
next
ten
years
that
charleston
housing
authority
missed,
shaw
johnson.
They
do
outstanding
work
and
this
is
not
to
denigrate
anything
that
they
do.
They
need
to
keep
doing
what
they're
doing,
but
we
cannot
solve
the
problem
with
the
public.
You
know
sort
of
traditional
way
of
doing
affordable
housing,
which
is
important,
and
we
can
still
keep
doing
that.
We
have
to
unleash
the
private
sector
on
this
so
that
normal
people
can
live
on
the
peninsula.
D
You
know
we're
going
to
hear
about
later
on
in
this
meeting,
we'll
eventually
we'll
eventually
make
our
way
through
this
agenda.
I
promise
about
you
know.
What's
with
you
know
what
what's
happened
with
the
african-american
population
on
the
peninsula?
You
know
we
we're.
We
are
all
talking
about
how
you
know
in
our
redistricting
conversations:
peninsula's
lost
a
lot
of
population
over
the
last
10
years.
They
lost
population
the
10
years
prior
to
that
okay.
D
These
are
the
ways
that
we
can
start
shoring
up
some
of
these
dynamics
by
allowing
the
economy
to
work
in
such
a
way
that
regular
people
can
afford
to
live
on
the
peninsula.
So
firefighters
could
live
on
the
peninsula
right.
Imagine
that
normal
people
living
on
the
peninsula,
so
we
can
have
a
breathing
thriving
dynamic
city.
So
this
is
a
extremely
exciting
measure.
D
I
think
that
it
incorporates
a
lot
of
smart,
modern,
progressive
approaches
to
affordable
housing.
You
know
jeff
roberts
mentioned
earlier
sort
of
by
decoupling
parking
requirements
from
development.
You
know
the
reason
we
keep
seeing
the
same
type
of
development,
whether
it's
on
the
peninsula
or
it's
out
in
the
suburbs
is
because
our
zoning
ordinance
essentially
creates
these
very,
very
narrow
boxes
of
where
development
can
be
profitable.
We
need
to
expand
that
we
need
to
get
creative
with
our
regulations
and
we
can
start
seriously
making
an
impact
on
our
affordable
housing
stock.
D
So
I
want
to
applaud
jeff
for
bringing
this
forward
and
his
leadership.
Frankly,
I
think
everyone
around
this
you
know
room
can
take
some
lessons
from
jeff
jeff's
legislating.
That's
our
job
me
is
legislating
from
the
perspective
of
coming
up
with
an
idea
bringing
it
forward
and
moving
it
through
the
process.
Every
single
one
of
us
needs
to
be
doing
that
when
it
comes
to
these
sort
of
issues
not
just
on
affordable
housing,
but
everything
working
it
through
the
committee's
process.
The
way
it
works.
D
A
D
B
D
R
R
I
get
confused
so
rather
than
talk
about
what
I
don't
understand,
I
can
we
make
a
motion
just
to
put
it
back
into
committee
and
do
it
I
mean:
if
that's
the
process
I
mean,
can
we
please,
can
I
make
a
motion
to
move
this
back
to
committee
so
that
we
can
discuss
this
there
and
bring
it
back
to
council
rather
than
discussing
it
all
tonight?
I.
A
Believe
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
already
to
approve.
You
could
make
a
motion
to
defer
and
then
that
would
take
precedence.
But
unless
someone
were
to
withdraw
their
motion,
you
couldn't
make
a
or
you
could
wait
until
after
that
motion
is
cleared
and
then
make
a
new
motion
to
send
it
to
the
committee
as
well.
A
A
M
They
would
have
to
be
in
an
accommodation
situation
and
treated
more
like
hotel
rooms.
I
believe
the
applicant,
the
intent
is-
and
the
applicant
may
want
to
respond
to
this,
but
the
antenna
is
for
30
days
or
greater.
Am
I
correct
on
that,
or
are
you
in
the
accommodations
under
this,
this
type
of
technology
around
the
city
to
the
accommodations?
These
are
purely
like
an
apartment
just
smaller
and
traditionally
about
30
to
35
percent,
less
of
a
studio
and
and
anything.
P
C
I
I
I
appreciate
what
thank
you
intent
here
for
this
property,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure,
because
I
love
this
idea.
I
think
it's
a
great
idea
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
here-
and
it
was
a
wonderful
new
york
times,
article
about
this
exact
type
of
housing
and
people
taking
advantage
of
it,
but
so
what
I
don't
want
to
occur
if
we
approve
this
ordinance
that
somehow
this
gets
converted
into
short-term
rental
property
and
say
it.
So
if
we've
got
the
safeguards
on
here,
that
gives
me
a
little
bit
lower
comfort.
C
Q
J
Council
membership.
So
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
I
agree
with
councilmember
gregory
and
the
reason
I
didn't
withdraw
my
motion
is:
we
spent
a
lot
of
time
working
this
night
lesson
learned
and
point
made
by
council
member
very,
very
appropriately
to
follow
the
process.
What
I
would
say
is
this:
I
think
it's
great
that
we're
involving
the
public,
the
private
sector.
Mr
roberts
is
well
known
to
us.
J
We've
partnered
with
him
many
times
and
there's
lessons
learned
and
everything
jeff
and
one
of
which
is,
I
think,
if
we
come
forward,
if
a
citizen
or
a
developer,
whoever
has
an
idea
like
this
and
has
an
ordinance
in
mind
partner
with
someone
on
city
council
just
to
make
sure
the
process
is
followed.
So
it
goes
in
the
right
direction
that
we
don't
have
this
sort
of
gap,
because
we
spend
a
lot
of
time
talking
about
process
about
a
really
great
idea.
That's
ultimately
going
to
get
approved
right.
J
So,
let's
give
it
first
reading.
Let's
send
it
to
councilmember
mitchell's
committee
for
review,
with
the
understanding
to
talk
again
about
process
to
make
sure
we
follow
it
and
let's
keep
moving
forward.
Not
take
a
step
back
because
one
of
the
fears
I've
got
is
we
draw
the
motion.
It
gets
deferred.
We
start
all
over
again
and
two
things
we
spend
an
amount
of
time
talking
about
processing
two
is
we
don't
get
this
in
place
and
we
need
to
get
it
in
place.
So
that's
my
reason.
I
didn't
for
doing
that.
J
H
You
I
I
second
your
motion
to
the
prayer,
because
I
thought
you
wanted
to
send
it
to
the
committee.
I
I
would
agree
with
giving
a
first
reading
and
if
we
send
it
to
the
committee,
because
one
question-
I
don't
want
to
answer
now
because
in
committee
I
don't
understand
why.
If
we
found
the
right
pocket
close
to
carter
lines,
wes
ashley,
even
james
allen,
why
couldn't
we
create
housing
like
that
west,
ashley
or
james
l,
if
it's
close
to
mass
transit
bus
lines
right
now?
H
This
ordinance
is
just
on
the
peninsula.
Land
is
a
little
bit
cheaper,
west
ashley
james
island
downtown.
So
anyway,
if
council,
lady
parker
would
withdraw
her
motion.
I
withdraw
the
second
under
the
provides
the
first
reading
and
then
it
goes
to
the
committee
and
then
we
can
vet
this
out.
That's
that's
fine
sure.
A
A
F
A
Any
other
comments
or
questions,
and
I
would
just
concur
that
some
further
thought
needs
to
go
into
this.
I
commend
you
for
the
idea,
and
generally
I
I'm
in
a
in
an
accord,
but
I
do
want
to
just
bring
up
one
instance-
and
I
asked
the
committee
to
really
consider
this
and
I'm
looking
over
at
council
member
mitchell
here
because,
for
example,
at
grace
apartments
which
is
affordable
housing,
we
reduced
the
parking
requirement
right
and
now
the
units
are
all
filled
up.
A
So
almost
you
you're
putting
a
little
binder
on
them,
but
it's
not
quite
as
strong
as
like.
If
you're
a
freshman
at
college
charleston,
you
cannot
bring
a
car
right
when
you
come
live
in
the
dorm,
and
so
so.
The
the
net
result,
though,
is
all
that
neighborhood
down
lee
street
nassau
street
there's
nowhere
left
to
park,
because,
even
though
it
was
a
good
intention
of
reducing
the
requirement
to
make
the
housing
more
affordable,
people
have
cards
anyway,
and
so
we
just
need
to
be
thoughtful
about
that
as
it
goes
to
committee.
A
So
anyway,
I
just
thought
I
would
add
that
somebody
sent
me
some
pictures
of
the
neighborhood
the
other
day
and
it's
jammed
over
there
right,
yeah,
all
right,
all
in
favor
of
first
reading
and
sending
it
to
cd
committee,
say
aye
aye
and
he
opposed
the
eyes,
haven't
all
right.
We're
moving
halfway
down
page
two
y'all
number,
seven.
Now.
M
This
is
because
it
is
in
the
low
impact
and
conserved
area
of
our
recommended
recommended
land
uses
in
the
new
comprehensive
plan,
and
so
we're
trying
to
keep
the
densities
down
in
those
areas,
but
also
allow
for
what
is
already
a
subdivided
lot.
So
it
would
meet
the
standards
of
the
rr1
in
this
location,
and
both
staff
and
planning
commission
recommended
approval
of
the
rr1
in
this
location
here
and
here's
an
image
of
the
property.
K
Anthony
g
bryant
and
for
the
record,
I'm
not
a
lobbyist,
so
grassroot
lobbyists
are
working
with
anybody
and
I
think
we
need
to
get
some
type
of
ordinance
in
place
for
people
for
grassroots
and
direct
lobbyists
who
come
in
this
council
chamber
our
relationships
with
people.
We
need
full
disclosure
these
relationships,
because
what
happened?
What
happened?
The
last
committee
meeting
last
a
public
comment
was
just
I
mean
just
not
cool,
okay.
The
reason
for
this
is
the
20
30.
The
2030
census
will
be
coming
up
the
2020
census.
K
You
have
not
done
redistricting,
yet
the
annexation
process.
I
did
annexation
public
comment
to
the
south
carolina
senate
under
greg
hembree
I'll
talk
about
that
in
my
public
comment
now,
mr
morgan,
we
need
to
know
how
many
annexations
have
led
to
the
illusion
of
the
black
vote.
If
you
can
ask
that
question
of
all
annexations
you've
done
before
this
body.
A
M
Eight
okay,
this
one
is
also
in
west
ashley.
It's
at
15
and
1521
wapu
drive
as
opposed
to
wapu
road,
and
these
are
properties
that
would
come
into
the
city
as
str,
single
and
two-family
residential.
Given
the
configuration
of
the
properties
and
the
uses
at
present
on
the
properties,
it
is
a
very
mixed
neighborhood
over
here
you've
got
dr-1f
as
well
as
sr2,
so
there
is
a
diversity
of
zoning
over
there
and
we
felt
the
str
would
be
appropriate
on
the
property.
M
B
D
A
M
A
All
right
would
anyone
like
to
be
heard
on
this
matter,
seeing
none
that
comes
to
council
motion
to
prove
in
a
second
any
questions
or
discussion,
all
in
favor,
please
say
aye
and
he
opposed
the
eyes
haven't
so
next
up.
Thank
you
all
for
participating
in
our
public
hearings.
Next
is
approval
of
city
council
minutes
we
had
february,
22nd
and
also
march
8th
yeah.
A
B
K
K
I'm
here
right
now
defend
my
honor
action
of
any
person
in
this
room.
My
father
worked
hard
for
his
house
and
for
his
sons,
I'm
offended
by
the
fact
that
mr
hembree
and
others
think
they
can
just
lie
on
black
people,
put
them
in
prison
and
do
them
in
that's.
What's
going
on
in
the
judicial
system
in
this
state,
with
these
bigots
and
racists,
that's
in
there
playing
games
with
black
people
and
black
people's
lives.
You
play
with
mine.
Here's
your
work!
Here's
your
fight!
Take
it
you're!
The
police
come
pick
it
up
beautifully.
K
B
F
The
cost
of
the
taxpayer
will
be
approximately
half
a
million
dollars
to
places
big
positions.
We
currently
have
academy
going
and
that
will
be
completed
june
july
this
year.
If
we
look
at
some
of
our
comparables
carrie,
durham
rally
savannah
hilton
head,
we
fall
behind
from
our
entry
level
position
to
the
top
opposition,
seven
percent
below
at
the
bottom
and
then
20
lower.
At
the
top
of
that
position,
our
brothers
and
sisters
in
durham
recently
received
a
14.3
percent
raise
in
january.
F
F
F
All
right
good
evening,
mr
mayor
members
of
council,
my
name
is
brian
axelrod,
I'm
a
firefighter
with
the
city
of
charleston.
I've
been
a
member
of
the
department
for
eight
years
and
in
the
eight
years
that
I've
been
there,
I've
seen
over
150
brothers
and
sisters
leave
and
the
majority
is
because
of
pay.
N
Pay
is
still
20..
Excuse
me,
twelve
dollars
and
eighty
eight
cents
livable
wage
here
is
quoted
at
sixteen
dollars
and
sixty
five
cent,
the
seventeen
dollars
and
twenty
six
cents.
So
we're
not
in
the
line
of
work
where
you
can
hire
a
new
person
and
actually
fill
that
void.
We're
at
the
point
where
hemorrhaging
experience.
F
L
L
We
got
people
who
sitting
up
in
jail,
ain't,
doing
nothing
doing
nothing
but
got
talent,
didn't
kill
nobody
or
nothing.
We
should
be
getting
them
to
help
build
a
homeless
center
like
councilman
wearing
is
saying,
and
it
could
be
done
one
time
in
this
country.
That's
what
we
used
to
do.
The
people
who
was
in
jail
they'd
be
on
the
chain
gang.
They
get
this
doing
all
kinds
of
different
things.
It
didn't
sit
up
in
jail
here.
A
man
hits
you
in
your
head.
L
L
A
D
E
I'm
here,
jerome
harris,
527,
cecilia
cole,
drive
trying
to
recapture
the
spirit
of
the
opening
prayer
and
the
proclamation
you
talked
we
talked
about,
never
forget,
we
can't
forget
the
horrors
of
the
holocaust,
but
we
also
should
not
forget
the
fact
that
the
germans
based
their
whole
concept
of
the
final
solution
on
what
was
happening
here
in
the
united
states,
the
jim
crow
approach.
Here,
we
also
should
not
forget
that
black
veterans
fought
to
free
those
folks.
In
addition,
again
they
came
home
right
and
were
treated
not
like
first-class
citizens.
E
I
urge
that
thank
the
council
for
moving
forward
passing
the
resolution
for
the
ordinance
question
whether
or
not
you
have
movement
action
to
implement
the
ordinance.
The
appointments
to
the
commission
congratulate
the
office
on
creating
gis
department
or
creating
the
racial
justice,
racial
equity
tool.
It's
important,
and
it
also
is
important
that
you
think
about
who
you
appoint
that
data,
that
information
and
the
ability
folks
to
be,
in
the
spirit
of
the
resolution
of
the
proclamation
that
you
pass
to
talk
about
humanity
and
focusing
on
that.
F
F
My
father
wrote
a
comment
that
I
was
stunned
by.
He
said.
I
think
city
council
wants
our
family
to
simply
evaporate.
This
is
after
a
lifetime
of
service.
I'd
like
to
know
the
number
of
people
in
the
room,
raised
their
hands
and
said
they
defended
the
country.
They
went
to
another
place
earlier
in
the
day
I
heard
it
said.
Oh,
I
spent
the
night
in
a
homeless
shelter
and
it
was
scary,
if
you
think
that's
scary,
spend
a
year
at
war
and
what
happened?
I
gladly
did
it.
F
My
entire
family
gladly
did
it,
and
what
do
we
ask?
We
have
to
be
treated
fairly,
the
oath
that
you
swore
when
you
stood
in
front
of
the
flag.
It
is
time
to
fix
the
situation
and
country
club
number.
Two,
your
lawyer
said
it
is
illegal.
The
roads
were
supposed
to
be
temporarily
barricaded
not
permanently
with
trees
planted
in
the
middle
of
a
temporary
barricade.
That
is
not
what
we
have.
We
have
permanent
displacement
tons
of
traffic
and
there
are
solutions
and
nobody's
looked
to
find
any
of
the
solutions.
F
I
brought
up
the
points
that
are
important.
You
talk
about
following
the
process
you
talk
about
following
the
code.
The
law
is
clear:
the
rules
are
clear.
The
rules
weren't
followed
a
group
of
individuals
went
before
the
city
said.
We
want
to
close
the
roads,
the
city
said:
no,
you
cannot
so
they
closed
them.
Anyway.
Is
this
part
of
the
process
that
you
say
we
want
to
have
exist?
F
B
We
did
receive
some
comments.
One
person
said
the
war
in
ukraine
was
illegal
and
so
were
road
closures
on
brampton
and
fairway.
This
both
should
be
condemned.
He
said
he
provided
numerous
traffic
screenshots
of
the
morning
and
afternoon
commute
and
school
traffic
on
crampton
and
harborview,
and
that
had
only
increased.
He
said
his
father
was
as
important
as
anyone
in
the
neighborhood
and
deserve
the
help
of
the
city,
because
the
law
supported
his
position.
B
One
person
said
the
road
closures
were
illegal
when
there
is
no
order
to
close
the
roads.
One
person
quoted
leviticus
night
leviticus
1932.
We
received
a
comment
via
email
regarding
the
purchase
of
property
at
11
huntington
avenue.
They
said
the
purchase
value,
exceeded
the
surrounding
property
values
and
urged
council
to
defer
the
item
until
more
accurate
description
based
on
fair
amount.
Market
value
was
determined.
B
One
person
advocated
for
the
purchase
of
11
huntington
avenue
to
serve
as
the
base
for
the
hope
center.
The
building
would
be
expanded
to
include
laundry
shower
facilities,
a
kitchen
meal
distribution,
space
and
flex
space
that
would
be
used
as
a
warming,
shelter
in
the
winter
and
cooling
shelter
in
the
summer
for
homeless
individuals.
Those
are
all
the
comments
we
received.
A
Q
So
please,
whoever
you
recommend,
you
know,
let's
make
sure
that
they
have
the
kind
of
background.
Okay,
just
like
we
do
for
all
of
our
committees.
Okay,
people
have
a
specialty
in
order
for
them
to
be
able
to
participate
on
those
committees,
and
I
want
to
hold
our
city
council
members
to
the
same
standard
for
heart.
Q
I
call
it
hark
for
heart
that
the
the
betting
process
is
one
where
we
need
to
make
sure
that
the
people
who
will
be
participating
has
the
kind
of
background
and
interest
to
be
able
to
carry
out
the
duties,
as
articulated
in
in
the
ordinance
for
heart.
Mr
mayor,
I
know
you
did
mention
betting,
but
I
think
that
it's
very
important
that
people
know
that,
just
as
we
do
for
other
communities
to
make
sure
that
the
background
is
there.
Thank
you
thank.
A
H
R
H
A
All
right,
well
I'll
in
all
in
respect
of
councilmember
sheila
I'll,
ask
him
later
so.
Can
I
have
a
motion
to
accept
these
appointments,
less
councilmember
waring
with
without
you,
without
you
being
a
part
of
it?
I
move
for
approval
yeah,
all
right,
all
in
favor,
please
say
aye
and
he
opposed
the
eyes.
Have
it
next.
There
was
this
great
article
you
might
have
seen
about
our
interactive
racial
equity
story,
map
tool
and
amber.
Are
you
he
she
is
here?
A
I
I
Okay,
this
tool
is
modeled
after
the
asheville
racial
equity
tool,
and
it
creates
an
opportunity
to
discuss
the
data
and
use
the
data
to
inform
our
decisions
regarding
the
racial
equities
that
exist
throughout
the
city.
In
order
for
transformation
to
occur
and
understanding
of
our
racialized
history
is
required.
I
A
mapping
tool
such
as
this
is
critical
for
us
to
use
in
order
for
change
to
occur
during
chloe
and
I's
discussion
about
the
comprehensive
plan,
which
I
would
note
for
the
first
time
incorporates
equity.
This
project
came
about,
and
so
we
thought
it
was
important
to
learn
about
the
where,
when
looking
at
statistics
about
race,
history
and
economic
gaps
in
an
organization,
learning
talking
and
analysis
about
the,
where
is
how
we
solve
problems
and
how
we
create
change.
S
First,
if
you
haven't
heard
the
term
storymap
before
it's
just
essentially
a
standalone
web
page
that
guides
the
user
through
an
interactive
experience
with
a
lot
typically
pretty
complex
information,
there's
multiple
layers,
and
so
it
guides
them
through
there's
a
lot
of
graphics,
in
addition
to
typically
interactive
maps.
Hence
the
map
part
of
the
story
map
our
stormwater
department
does
a
great
job
of
using
this
tool
to
explain
their
projects.
S
So
in
this
story
map
we
have
essentially,
we
start
with
an
introduction
to
racial
equity
definitions.
Other
key
terms,
then,
there's
a
very
brief
underlining
brief
and
bold
here,
history
of
charleston
and
race.
So
we
just
touch
on
some
key
highlights
and
the
timeline
is
really
focused
on
specifically
the
role
of
of
local
government
and
not
just
local
government
state
and
federal,
as
well
decisions
and
actions
in
the
past
that
have
led
to
some
of
the
racial
disparities
that
we
see
today.
S
And
then
we
go
into
the
data
of
those
racial
disparities
and
also
how
those
are
the
implications
of
those
in
gentrification
and
displacement
in
our
city.
And
then
we
end
with
highlights
on
additional
racial
equity
data
resources
that
we
have
in
the
city
and
some
ways
that
we
can
use
this
information
going
forward
to
guide
our
work.
S
On
one
other
quick
note,
these
are
self-guided
so
that
we're
not
taking
you
through
the
story
map
itself.
We
encourage
you
all
to
spend
time
with
it,
so
we're
just
touching
on
some
key
highlights
one
of
the
pieces
in
the
timeline
at
the
beginning
of
the
story
map
references,
the
1931
morrison
knolls
report.
This
was
a
report
that
was
prepared
for
the
city
of
charleston
planning
and
zoning
commission.
It
accompanied
the
city's
first
zoning
ordinance.
S
It
had
explicit
racial
language
in
the
report
itself
and
also
a
general
plan
map
that
had
race-based
residential
districts.
That
was
the
legend
that
you
saw
on
the
first
screen
and
though
the
zoning
ordinance
in
the
zoning
map
itself
did
not
have
any
racially
explicit
language.
These
two
were
working
in
were
working
together.
The
the
documents
were
informing
one
another,
and
so
this
is
something
that
we
are
going
to
be
doing
further
work
on
analyzing.
S
Once
we
have
those
digitized
all
the
maps
that
accompanied
that
report
right
now,
our
records
management
office
is
working
with
college
of
charleston
to
get
those
scanned.
So
you'll
be
seeing
more
about
that.
Once
we
have
that
information,
another
spotlight
is
an
additional
story
map,
so
there's
story,
map
and
story
map.
S
You
can
click
through
to
see
to
open
up
the
urban
displacement
story
map-
and
this
is
showing
historical
imagery
next
to
modern
day
imagery
and
the
impacts
of
urban
renewal
era,
projects
in
charleston,
so
specifically
major
infrastructure
projects
and
the
impacts
of
those
projects
on
predominantly
black
communities
in
charleston
county,
not
just
in
the
city
of
charleston
I'll.
Let
amber
speak
to
this
one.
This
is
her.
I
So
the
racial
equity
timeline
story
map
it's
based
on
a
project
that
councilman
sacramento
and
I
are
participating
in
with
the
federal
reserve
bank
of
philadelphia
part
of
that
project
assets
to
complete
a
timeline.
So
we
were
able
to
take
that
timeline.
Add
related
images
and
map
the
locations
in
that
timeline.
To
complete
this
additional
story,
map.
S
We
have
some
graphs
in
addition
to
the
maps
that
I'll
show
you
in
a
second.
So
in
these
charts,
these
are
charts
that
were
prepared
for
the
charleston
city
plan.
It
pulls
from
both
since
our
american
community
survey
data
as
well
of
the
city
plan,
housing
analysis
that
we
procured-
and
this
is
just
showing
a
population
change
by
race
across
over
time
and
also
by
area
of
the
city,
we're
showing
a
a
loss
in
the
black
population.
Specifically,
this
is
data
that
I'm
sure
you
all
have
heard
of
before.
S
Also
looking
at
wage
disparities
between
black
and
white
households
and
that
gap
is
actually
increased
for
increasing
and
then
this
last
graph
is
showing
cost
burdenness
housing
cost
burdenness
by
area,
so
cost
burden
is
when
a
house
pays,
our
household
pays
more
than
30
percent
of
their
annual
income
on
housing,
so
these
are
high
across
the
city,
but
we
did
find
that
it's
twice
as
more
likely
or
neighbor.
Predominantly
black
neighborhoods
are
twice
as
more
likely
to
be
cost
burden
than
majority
white
neighborhoods.
S
These
are
maps
showing
some
of
the
data.
I'm
not
going
to
show
you
all
the
maps.
There's
six
in
there
and
again
these
are
interactive.
You
can
click
on
the
different
elements
of
the
map
you
can
zoom
in
and
out.
These
are
just
going
to
be
still
images.
One
of
the
maps
is
showing
that
same
population
change
data,
but
spatially,
and
so
this
is
by
neighborhood.
The
dark
yellow
is
a
decrease
in
the
black
population,
and
this
is
using
the
most
recent
2020
census
data.
S
By
at
the
block
level,
we
have
a
neighborhood
change
map,
which
is
a
term
that
is
used
often
interchangeably
with
gentrification.
It's
essentially
measuring
for
the
same
things.
So
it's
looking
at
not
just
change
in
race,
but
also
income,
education,
cost
of
rent
and
household
size,
and
so
the
dark
purple
are
areas
of
high
change,
high
neighborhood
change
in
the
city.
S
We
use
the
los
angeles
indices
of
neighborhood
change
methodology
for
that,
so
you
can
click
to
learn
more
about
that
if
you're
interested
and
then
this
last
map
I'll
highlight
is
a
side-by-side
comparison
between
that
neighborhood
change
map
and
a
housing
cost
change
map.
The
housing
cost
change
map
shows
the
the
change
in
number
of
rent-burdened
households.
So
again,
that
cost
burden
means
that
they're
paying
more
than
30
of
their
income
on
rent,
and
so
the
dark
blue
is
showing
a
decrease
in
rent
burden
households.
S
We
found,
when
looking
at
these
side
by
side
that
the
decrease
in
rent
burden
households
corresponded
almost
exactly
with
areas
of
high
change
in
the
city,
so
that
can
that
can
take
a
while
to
process
so
I'll
kind
of
walk
through
the
the
explanations
for
what
could
be
causing
that
are
either
wages
are
increasing
or
housing
costs
are
going
down
or
those
who
are
rent
burdened
previously
have
since
left
and
people
with
higher
incomes
have
moved
in.
Since
we
know
the
first
two
of
those
wages
are
not
keeping
up
with
housing
prices.
S
Housing
costs
are
not
going
down,
then.
The
third
explanation
makes
the
most
sense.
So
this
is
something
that
is
not
news
to
many
people
that
housing
costs
and
has
an
association
with
gentrification
displacement.
But
this
data
just
shows
us
that
cause
and
effect
and
also
gives
us
some
measures
that
we
can
use
to
look
in
the
future
of
where
we
can
aim
our
strategies
to
prevent
displacement
and
gentrification
going
forward.
I
So
the
tools
that
were
highlighted
in
the
story
map
can
be
found
on
the
open
data
portal
under
the
racial
equity
currently
what's
featured
featured
there
is
the
street
street
street
tree
canopy
social
vulnerability
in
the
charleston
police
department,
racial
bias,
audit
tracking
dashboard.
We
hope
to
be
able
to
add
more
there
in
the
future
right
now.
This
is
just
the
beginning
of
this
map.
We
hope
to
continue
to
grow
it
as
the
work
continues
to
grow.
Q
Q
It's
a
fantastic
piece
of
information
that
really
shows
us
how
we
got
to
where
we
are
and
how
important
it
is
that
we
have
heart,
because
what
it
does
is
substantiates
mir.
As
you
know,
a
lot
of
the
issues
and
concerns
that
were
raised
with
the
special
commission,
so
anybody
that
wants
to
really
dig
in
a
little
more
it's
just
as
simple
as
just
clicking
that
and
it
takes
you
through
tons
of
pages
and
data
and
information
on
race,
disparity
and
equity.
Q
A
E
Will
be
brief,
chloe
and
amber?
Thank
you
for
for
the
work
you
know.
I
wasn't
on
council
when
y'all
voted
on
the
slavery
apology,
but
I'm
going
to
use
that
as
a
kind
of
a
reflection
point
for
me.
I
know
many
on
council
didn't
vote
some
didn't
vote
because
it
didn't
go
far
enough.
I'm
thinking
of
the
arc
of
progress
that
I've
that
I've
seen
and
watching.
So
we
have
the
slavery
apology.
We
have
amber's
office,
we
have
the
commission
now.
E
The
newly
formed
permanent
commission
I
do
feel
like
tonight
is
a
critical
moment.
I
know
this
stuff
doesn't
get
played
out
in
the
news
and
it's
not
really
sexy,
but
we
are
connecting
implementing
action
ideas
with
data
and
when
you
do
that,
that's
when
I
think
real
change
occurs,
because
if
you
aren't
measuring
something
you're
not
going
to
improve
on
it,
this
is
a
starting
point
to
measure
where
we're
headed.
So
I
think
it's
a
monumental
shift
because
now
we're
talking
about
data,
we're
not
talking
about
feelings
and
emotions.
This
is
real.
E
Q
A
And
it's
it's
up
to
date
as
well:
they've
used
the
2020,
the
more
current
census
data
and
the
trends
are
still
there
y'all.
So
this
will
be
an
incredible
tool
for
us,
but
also
specifically
for
the
human
affairs
commission
to
be
able
to
talk
about
policy
and
and
base
it
on
data,
as
you
say,
council,
member
sacrament,
rather
than
emotions
or
or
a
hypothetical
sum.
So
anyway,
this
great
work
wanted
to
share
with
all
of
council.
A
So
next
up
is
a
very
brief
report
from
me.
I
think
tracy's
at
home
a
little
under
the
weather
this
evening
and
all
I'm
going
to
report
to
you
on
covid.
Is
that
what
the
case
numbers
where
the
cdc
had
recognized
this
area
as
being
medium,
we're
now
low?
And
so
that's
a
good
thing.
Employee
cases
remain
at
zero
for
the
second
meeting
in
a
row,
so
both
good
pieces
of
news.
That's
all
I
got
to
report
to
you
on
covert
next
up
is
our
council.
R
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
just
want
to
quickly
say
I
didn't
get
to
run
down
the
list.
There
are
so
many
great
organizations
in
this
city
that
support
the
women
of
our
city
that
are
run
by
women,
but
just
want
to
throw
out
a
few.
I
did
not
expect
tonight
to
be
this
long,
so
I'll
be
quick.
Postpartum
support,
charleston
ywca,
american
association
of
university
women,
junior
league
women's
rights
and
empowerment
network.
My
sister's
house,
florence,
crittenton
home
tri-county,
speaks
elevate,
tri-county
women's
project,
charleston
junior
women's
club.
R
Obviously
these
are
all
wonderful
organizations
that
that
support
our
community.
I
commend
them.
Let's
continue
to
support
them
as
they
support
the
women
of
our
community
council
members.
I
would
love
for
you
in
each
one
of
your
districts
to
just.
Let
me
know
one
thing
that
maybe
the
women
of
your
district
might
want
on.
You
know
to
be
pushed
into
our
commission
on
women.
Please,
just
let
me
know
you
know
I.
R
R
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor.
So
again
this
is
not
to
be
a
long,
drawn-out
conversation
just
an
update
again,
I
I
have
not
received
a
response
from
the
attorney
general
I'm
getting
the
same
response
as
before,
so
that
that's
really
all
I
have.
I
will
continue
to
work
on
some.
You
know
coming
up
with
a
process
bringing
it
to
committee
and
then
bringing
it
to
y'all.
So
just
wanted
to
kind
of
update
you
on
that.
Okay,.
C
I
I
pulled
judge
norton's
order
and
addressed
the
lawsuit
that
was
brought
out
I'll,
give
you
a
copy
of
this
council
on
the
park
which
may
answer
some
of
your
questions,
but
this
was
the
order
that
denied
their
motion
for
temporary
relief
and
on
page
38
of
the
order.
It
talks
strictly
about
south
carolina
home
rule
act
and
judge
norton's
order
stamped
out
any
challenge
that
the
plaintiffs
may
have
had
to
the
home
rule
act
and
it
cites
the
memorandum
you
should
receive
from
corporate
council
as
to
this
particular
issue
as
well.
C
C
C
Q
I
think
that's
very
important
and
the
mayor
has
the
responsibility
to
carry
out
either
as
the
executive
branch,
because
sometimes
we
ask
our
corporation
counsel,
the
legal
opinions
when
they're
really
policy
decisions
that
can
be
made
by
this
body
without
even
going
to
them.
Okay,
now
don't
get
me
wrong,
they're
not
going
to.
Let
us
make
a
policy
decision
that
is
going
to
cause
us
problems,
but
I
think
that
it's
very
important
that
at
some
point
we
have
a
discussion
over
the
distinction
between
policy
and
law.
Q
Q
R
Yes,
just
again
more
regarding
the
process
council
member
shade,
I'm
well
aware
of
everything
that
you've
printed
out
for
me
again.
It
was
just
just
keeping
it
here
again.
If
we
go
back
to
the
coven
19
update,
it's
all
but
disappeared
until
it's
back
and
that's
when
we
need
to
talk
about
process
and
our
city
staff.
So
that's
the
only
reason
it
was
on
here
tonight.
If
you'd
like
to
discuss
it
further,
but
I
don't
it
was.
It
was
just
an
update.
R
C
Meetings
on
this
particular
subject
and
it's
the
same
same
question-
has
come
up
the
same
time
and
your
actions
and
the
actions
of
other
jurisdictions
have
been
validated
and
it's
not
a
question
of
policy
or
procedure.
It's
a
question
of
the
mayor's
authority
as
to
implementing
what
you
implemented
and
it
was
been
ruled
upon
it's.
It's
not
an
attorney
general's
opinion.
It's
not
corporate
counsel's
opinion.
It's
a
decision
by
a
a
sitting
judge
who
ruled
that
this
was
a
proper
mechanism
which
you
did
and
what
other
jurisdictions
did
as
well.
C
So
I'm
not
sure
what
the
end
game
is
on
on
this
matter.
Glad
to
continue
the
discussion
that
having
a
discussion
about
it,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
talking
about
the
mass
ordinance
that
you
or
the
mass
policy
or
the
mass
process
that
you
implemented
has
been
said.
It's
okay
and
it
is
the
case,
is
now
over
and
if
you
want
to,
if
you
have
another
crisis
that
comes
up
and
you
follow
that
same
process
and
someone
challenges
it,
I
suspect
that
the
ruling
will
be
pretty
identical
to
what
you
just
did
before.
